Even ‘climate havens’ face a riskier future, and infrastructure often isn’t built to handle climate change. But there are steps cities can take to prepare.
Thermostats don’t tell the whole truth about heat, particularly in older homes.
Health and climate change researchers explain the risks and why older adults, even those in northern states, need to pay attention.

The US population is getting older, and temperatures are rising. It can be a lethal combination, as three health and climate change researchers explain.
Three economists looked at years of temperature and death data and calculated the costs when forecasts miss the mark.
One in 4 American households are at risk of losing power because of the high cost of energy. Over 30% of those disconnections are in summer, when heat gets dangerous.
